Tayere malke, gezunt zolstu zayn!
Gis on dem bekher, dem bekher, dem vayn!
Bim-bam…


Fun dem dozikn bekher, er glantst azoy sheyn
Hot getrunken mayn zeyde, mayn zeyde aleyn!
Bim-bam…


Tayere malke, gezunt zolstu zayn!
Far vemen zol ikh trinken dem dozikn vayn?
Bim-bam…


Lekhayim vel ikh trinken far dem pintale yid,
Vos mutshet zikh tomed un vert keynmol nit mid!
Bim-bam…


Zingt ’ekher un ’ekher: G’t, du bist groys!
Behalt, malke, dem bekher – dos lidl iz oys!
Bim-bam…
